The pot has started to boil in Europe

The elections for the European Parliament, held between June 6-9, caused one of the sharpest political ruptures on the old continent since the end of World War II.

The results showed that right-wing and far-right parties are on the rise across almost all of Europe.

Leading countries of this geography, primarily France and Germany, have begun to drift in the shallow waters of right-wing politics.

The fact that Wilders won the election in the Netherlands towards the end of last year, the tendency of the Portuguese people—who had toppled Europe's oldest dictatorship 50 years ago—to fall back into the wake of fascism in the last election, and the rapid strengthening of the far-right in Spain over the last 10 years... All of these were warning flares.

In Austria, the far-right was already in power.

In Italy, Meloni, who does not hide her admiration for postmodern fascism even if she is not yet at a point that would make one pray for Mussolini, became Prime Minister two years ago.

As for Poland and Hungary, they are known to everyone.

Let us not count the countries one by one, but the results of the elections show that Europe will face extremely serious political and social issues in the foreseeable future.

The conditions bear a great resemblance to the pre-World War II era.

In fact, the coming of Thursday was evident from Wednesday.

Let us sit crooked and speak straight.

Just as the Migration Period destroyed and razed the Western Roman Empire, the human mobility that has intensified towards the old continent, especially in the last quarter-century, is shaking Western civilization as we know it to its foundations.

Whether we look at it from the right, the left, the front, or the back, the main reason for the strengthening of the far-right in Europe is the refugees, migrants, and foreigners who roam the old continent as if they own the place, refuse to integrate into the society they are in, benefit from all the blessings of democracy but consider those who are not like them as enemies, and scream for Sharia by saying, “I want to live my religion freely”...

After this mass began to act increasingly recklessly under the protection of fake leftists, NGO members fed from across the Atlantic, and soft-brained liberals, the needle began to shift to the right and even the far-right, as is the nature of politics.

Let us look at the issue by putting on our close-up glasses, without falling into the simplistic assessment that Europe is merely confronting its colonial past.

It is possible to speak of two processes here that have a multiplier effect on each other.

The first is the paralysis of the European left by the winds of identity politics blowing from the other side of the Atlantic following the collapse of the Soviet Union, the sidelining of class politics, and the opening of space for right-wing, racist parties; the second is the US project of bringing political Islamist parties, especially the Muslim Brotherhood, to power in the Middle East and North Africa, hitched to the tail of capitalism.

We all know that the calculation made at home by the know-it-all game makers in Washington did not match the market here.

The political Islam and Muslim Brotherhood project collapsed, but the countries targeted by the US were devastated.

Neither democracy, nor human rights, nor prosperity came to these countries.

People were already leaving their countries before this due to war, hunger, deprivation, poverty, and political reasons.

They were looking for a good future for themselves and their children in a civilized country. Those who managed to get to Europe, America, or Canada via Turkey in this process were the lucky ones.

But after the Arab Spring, migration, so to speak, exploded.

However, the nature of the situation changed shortly after.

Those who did not have war, hunger, deprivation, or poverty in their countries joined the migration caravan just as much as those who did.

For example, there was no civil war in Tunisia, Algeria, or Morocco. There was no such major economic crisis either. They had functioning systems and social orders of their own.

In Iraq, political and social balances had largely settled, the US occupation in Afghanistan had ended, the Taliban had brought relative stability to the country and ensured the safety of its citizens. Life had returned to normal in Syria.

In short, the reasons that triggered mass migration from these countries to the West had disappeared.

But mass human mobility continued, increasing in an almost geometric progression.

This is where the trouble begins...

Social scientists will of course research the reason for this, but when I look at the issue with a journalist's eye, I can say this:

Illegal migrants, mostly young men, see Europe as a geography to be plundered. Since the majority are Muslim, they also accept this as “legitimate” from a religious perspective.

According to them, those who came before them benefited from the flesh, milk, and wool of Western civilization as they pleased under the protection of the political system, human rights, democracy, and law in these countries.

When they found a loophole, they had the freedom to commit unlimited crimes.

Moreover, there were free women in the West!

There is no need to emphasize what kind of gravitational force this creates for young men from the Middle East, North Africa, Pakistan, and Afghanistan who have not been able to overcome the primitive patriarchal mentality.

That is why those who packed their bags showed up at Europe's door.

Migration towards the West has changed in quality over the last 10 years.

The reasons have diversified.

Refugees have quickly become not those affected by developments, but those who influence and even determine them.

There are thousands of videos on YouTube where foreigners explain how they make money through illegal activities by exploiting the loopholes of the system in the countries they are in.

Social media both triggers this mass mobility and facilitates it by showing the way.

For example, a video shot by an illegal migrant who set off from Morocco and came to Amsterdam via Spain and then France is used for educational purposes for those who will come next. In another video, it is explained how to bring drugs from Afghanistan and how to market them in Brussels and Amsterdam.

It is possible to multiply the examples.

Today, in major European cities such as Brussels, Paris, Berlin, London, and Amsterdam, you can see that foreigners who have come from the Middle East, Africa, the Maghreb, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and India, whether legal or illegal migrants, have occupied all public spaces! Parks, gardens, boulevards, streets...

The ghettos in big cities are almost like liberated zones.

At the same time, the political support of fake leftists, soft-brained liberals, and NGO members funded by dark circles provides them with a strong protective shield.

Thus, they can easily label those who question them as “racist”, “xenophobic”, or “fascist”.

Moreover, they are aware that they have great freedom of movement under the said protective shield.

That is, they can hide behind freedom of expression and assembly to close city streets to traffic whenever they want, smash the windows and frames of shops, break ATMs, loot shops, and flip over and burn cars. They can hide behind freedom of religion and demand Sharia.

At the same time, they cause the questioning of fundamental rights and freedoms.

Drug, arms, and human trafficking in Europe are entirely in the hands of foreigners. Likewise, the prostitution sector.

A report prepared by the Council of Europe in 2010 determined that mafia-like structures formed by foreigners had reached a point that threatened human rights in Europe.

Interpol had caught a Syrian 8 years ago who came to Paris with nothing but the clothes on his back and earned millions of Euros from the drug pill trade.

Moreover, this person was an illegal migrant with no records.

In short, the world, especially the old continent, is running towards a new and dark era.

The global system constructed by global capital barons led by the US is falling apart at the seams.

However, the wounds opened by neoliberalism cannot be treated with the current mentality of the West.

Let us write it clearly; the issue cannot be solved without completely rejecting the soft universe that promises a global paradise with the wet dreams of postmodernism and the sick mentality of the new world order.

The paradigm needs to change.

Let us give an appointment for the next article to those who ask “What do you mean?” and put a period to our article by saying that the rest is just empty talk.
